Editor’s Note: I apologize for the lack of recent posts. We have been on the road traveling to visit my wife’s family in Missouri. I should be home Wednesday.
Michael Weaver has informed me that the Free Expression Foundation HAS WON his free speech case in Douglas County, GA which has dragged on for years now and wants to reach out and thank everyone here for their support. We covered this ordeal here, here, here, here, here and here. There was never anything illegal about distributing these flyers. Conservatives in Red States like Florida and Georgia have been trying to criminalize their distribution as antisemitic “hate speech.”
Let that be a lesson to you, endure to the end and you shall be saved.
How many years and how much money did it take? Did the losers have to pay anything?
Great news.Safe travels for you and yours.God bless.
Thank you. This is to see my family after 1,000 days of injustice. https://www.givesendgo.com/bolsheviklawfare
Thank you for sharing our win. Please share my GSG so i can see my dad and daughter after 1,000 days of family separation due to this Bolshevik lawfare. https://www.givesendgo.com/bolsheviklawfare
Congratulations on your victory. You really had to endure an amazing amount of crap in a supposedly reasonable part of the country. Just look at what they did to Shiloh Hendrix in MN. I second Rebel Roy – Lord bless you and yours and safest of travels.
Well done to Mr. Weaver! And may Gold bless the South.
Well it’s about time. Congrats to Michael.
If only Whites defended their own as voraciously as they do jews, blacks, Mexicans, sodomites, etc.
God bless the Free Expression Foundation for helping my friend get a fair hearing. The war that started in 1776 goes unabated.
Pretty black-pilled these days so t/y for this good news.
Mike Weaver is an, “our guy” among, “our guys.” 1488.
Some good news for a change. Any chance of suing them for damages? Tyranny is free speech with exceptions.
Been doing a lot of anonymous free speech in the mid-mid-Atlantic. We use Avery 5164 shipping labels as the medium. The template for six Avery 5164 stickers on a single letter-size page is done in Inkscape software, which is free software. It takes a little bit of practice to get the margins correct on the template for the stickers. The stickers print very well on color laser printers but any printer will work.
These shipping label stickers adhere quite well to smooth surfaces like metal and plastic. They’re very hard to remove when they are dry.
In an hour, if you’re crafty and aggressive, you can put up 40-50 stickers on metal sign poles, signs, utility boxes, etc. We don’t put them on any private property. The higher up you put them, the harder they are for someone to reach and remove.

Hey, hey, sometimes the good guys win.
Shades of the Shiloh Hendrix case here. Shiloh was convicted in Minnesota, The Land of Ten Zillion Somalis, of one charge, a misdemeanor, for yelling at a 9 YO Somali kid who was trying to steal her young son’s things. She used the “N” word after the Somali father followed her around, harassing her and repeatedly using the “N” word himself. She is appealing her conviction on the misdemeanor charge she was found guilty of by an idiot jury in Minnesota.
Mr. Weaver’s case is similar to Shiloh Hendrix’s case in that it is clearly lawfare by der Staat against its political opponents. Their most important enemies are White, working class types who are the ones most often enriched by diversity. The wealthy “liberal” types have bought insulation (measured in miles) distancing themselves from the joys of associating with our dusky brethren.
These are just two prominent cases ignored by the Lügenpresse because the Left was defeated and the facts contradict the official “liberal” position of tolerance and “Free Speech”. The Left has no tolerance for its enemies nor do its enemies truly have free speech. The two cases, thousands of miles apart, in two completely different jurisdictions, one red, one blue state show that all Whites in the GloboHomo Empire are at risk because of our race, nothing else. The Usual Suspects just plan to have their dusky types put the White, “liberal” types in the wood chipper last, that’s all.
Shiloh Hendrix verdict. Not a victory for “free speech”. Mr. Weaver has had his entire life turned upside down and inside out -/ basically destroyed— for how many years?? This is not justice. We must support them both,..White solidarity for those two courageous fighters, and any others who display courage and defiance against the anti-White Jew World Order system!
I am Michael Weaver. It took us 1,000 days of injustice to win our First Amendment case in Douglas County, Georgia. I’ve missed time with my dad and daughter. Also,my beloved Tuxedo cat Mittens died on August 2024 and due to illegal warrants I didn’t get to say goodbye.
Trials, Tribulations, and Triumph
By Michael Weaver
In the quiet neighborhoods of Douglas County, Georgia, a simple act of political expression—distributing flyers—ignited a multi-year legal battle that tested the limits of the First Amendment. What began as an effort to share views on Jewish influence in American institutions ended in a hard-fought victory, affirming that protected speech cannot be criminalized under the guise of “littering.” This is the story of that ordeal and the triumph made possible by the Free Expression Foundation.
On or around November 3, 2023, Philip Matthew (Matt) Jacobs and I, Michael Weaver, distributed flyers critical of what we saw as disproportionate Jewish power and influence in media, finance, politics, and culture. The materials were placed in driveways in Lithia Springs and surrounding areas of Douglas County. Hilary Jacobs sat in the vehicle while Matt and I carried out the distribution. Some of the activity was livestreamed. Local authorities, including the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office under then-Sheriff Tim Pounds, responded aggressively. They treated the homes involved like high-threat targets, conducted raids, and charged the Jacobs with misdemeanor littering. High bonds of $30,000 each were set—$60,000 total for an alleged littering offense. Matt Jacobs reported being physically assaulted while in jail. A warrant and threat of arrest hung over me as well for similar distribution.
Under Georgia law, O.C.G.A. § 16-7-43 makes it unlawful to dump, deposit, throw, or leave litter on any public or private property or waters in the state (with limited exceptions such as designated disposal areas, proper receptacles, or owner consent). “Litter” is defined in the related provisions of the Litter Control Law (including O.C.G.A. § 16-7-42) as discarded or abandoned refuse, rubbish, junk, or other waste material. Political flyers and expressive printed matter are not waste. They are core political speech. Yet prosecutors, including the State Court Solicitor, pursued the charges under this statute. Formal accusations lagged until pressure mounted. The practical effect was clear: speech the authorities disliked was being suppressed through selective enforcement of a neutral-sounding ordinance.
The personal cost was severe. Roughly 1,000 days of legal uncertainty followed. Family separation stretched on. I missed precious time with my father and daughter. My tuxedo cat Mittens died in August 2024; illegal warrants prevented me from saying goodbye. Daily life became constrained by the overhang of prosecution and the broader climate of hostility toward dissenting views on these topics. In red states as well as blue ones, efforts have emerged to reframe unpopular political literature as criminal “hate speech” or public nuisance, effectively chilling leaflet distribution—the historic backbone of grassroots political communication in America.
Help arrived through the Free Expression Foundation (FEF), a nonprofit dedicated to providing legal, financial, and moral support to those facing harm for exercising free expression rights. Attorneys associated with FEF—Glen Allen, Randy Sheppard (an FEF board member and longtime Georgia lawyer), and Fred Kelly—took up the fight. In March 2025 they filed a federal civil rights lawsuit under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Georgia (Jacobs et al. v. Catlin/Caitlin et al.), naming approximately 13 Douglas County law enforcement and related officials. The suit alleged First Amendment violations, retaliatory prosecution, and other constitutional claims. Defendants moved to dismiss. FEF counsel responded with an amended complaint and a motion for preliminary injunctive relief. Aspects of the federal case encountered Younger abstention issues and proceeded on appeal to the Eleventh Circuit, keeping the pressure on.
The decisive breakthrough came in the state criminal proceedings. Represented by FEF-affiliated counsel, the defense filed a general demurrer and motion to quash. On the facts alleged, no crime had occurred under O.C.G.A. § 16-7-43. The defense relied heavily on controlling Georgia precedent, particularly Statesboro Publishing Co. v. City of Sylvania, 271 Ga. 92, 516 S.E.2d 296 (1999). In that case the Georgia Supreme Court struck down a local ordinance restricting free distribution of printed materials to yards and driveways, holding it violated free speech and press rights under both the U.S. and Georgia Constitutions because it was not narrowly tailored to the interest in preventing litter and left inadequate alternative channels of communication.
Judge Brian Fortner of Douglas County granted the general demurrer and motion to quash. A general demurrer means that even accepting every factual allegation in the charging documents as true, the conduct described does not constitute a crime under the law. The motion to quash invalidated the accusations as legally defective. The littering charges against Philip Matthew Jacobs, Hilary Jacobs, and me were thereby defeated. The ruling reaffirmed a basic principle: littering statutes such as O.C.G.A. § 16-7-43 cannot be used as a pretext to suppress the distribution of political flyers, however unpopular or offensive some may find their content.
This was not an endorsement of any particular viewpoint. It was a recognition that the First Amendment protects speech precisely when it is controversial. Viewpoint-neutral time, place, and manner restrictions must still be narrowly drawn; they cannot become tools of selective enforcement against disfavored messages. The Free Expression Foundation’s willingness to litigate unpopular cases—cases mainstream organizations often avoid—made the difference between prolonged prosecution and vindication.
The fight is not entirely over. The federal § 1983 claims seeking accountability for the retaliatory arrests, high bonds, alleged assault, and related harms continue. Yet the criminal case victory ends the immediate threat of conviction and the accompanying stigma and restrictions. After more than two and a half years of uncertainty, the legal cloud has lifted.
This episode illustrates both the fragility and the resilience of free speech protections. In an era when “hate speech” rhetoric is sometimes used to expand the reach of ordinary regulatory statutes, courts still possess the tools—and, in this instance, the willingness—to enforce constitutional limits. The Free Expression Foundation’s attorneys demonstrated the practical value of specialized, determined legal advocacy on behalf of those whose expression places them outside favored circles.
The trials tested resolve. The tribulations exacted real personal and familial costs. The triumph belongs not only to the individuals involved but to the principle that government may not criminalize the peaceful distribution of printed political speech. That principle, reaffirmed in a Douglas County courtroom with the help of the Free Expression Foundation, remains a cornerstone of American liberty.
Well done sir, well done. Now get a pound of flesh out of the bastards for putting you et al. through the wringer because of fear of The Usual Suspects.
It’s ironic that this lawfare in a red state like Georgia (it could have been any of the other 49 states) proves that what you were claiming in your flyers is true. That’s exactly why you were persecuted. Had you been writing about global warming, the deficit or any other subject none of this would have happened.
